Nordic culture is under the spotlight at London’s Southbank. Last night was the turn of literature so we visited the Norwegian ambassador’s home for the launch of an anthology.
Fernando Augusto Pacheco joins Tom Edwards in the studio to chat through this week’s Norwegian music chart.
Danish chef and food writer Hahnemann is helping to spread the word about the cultural practice of ‘hygge’: it means ‘cosy’ in Danish. Her new book, ‘Scandinavian Comfort Food: Embracing the Art of Hygge’, means cooks can get very comfy with the concept.
A bakery at Stockholm Arlanda Airport invites dedicated bakers to drop off their fermenting bread mix to be looked after by professionals.
Special episode in association with the Nordic Council of Ministers We’ve teamed up with the Nordic Council of Ministers for a series of five special episodes delving deeper into topics of global importance from the region. In this episode, Michael Booth explains how the Nordic countries are attempting to see their ageing populations as an economic opportunity rather than a burden.
We’re in Stockholm to meet some of the most ambitious, innovative and clever entrepreneurs shaking up the Swedish capital’s food-and-drink scene.
How Stockholmers get the most from nature over the summer months. Plus: former White House chef Sam Kass on how to make people eat healthier.
Hailing from the Faroe Islands, Eivør performs in the studio and tells us how her tiny home country proved to be big inspiration for new album ‘Slør’.
We report from Stockholm Design Week, including emerging talents and design at the Norwegian Embassy. Meanwhile, as Netflix releases a new documentary series about design, we speak to one of its producers, former ‘Wired’ editor in chief Scott Dadich.
As one of Europe’s fastest growing cities, Oslo is uniquely suited to hosting one of this year’s biggest architecture events. We speak to the curators and director behind Oslo Architecture Triennale 2016 and get analysis from journalist James Taylor-Foster. Plus, a hospitality design report from Singapore.
From the cool and crisp landscapes of Sweden to the dark cinemas of Asia, evoking a sense of place on the page is a delicate art. We talk to the editors of two magazines doing just that: Liz Schaffer from travel title ‘Lodestars Anthology’ and Davide Cazzaro, the man behind ‘Nang’ magazine.
We are at Stavanger’s Gladmat food festival, the biggest of its kind in Scandinavia. The Norwegian city’s top restaurateurs, chefs and producers prove why it is still a culinary capital – despite concerns over falling oil prices.
A live performance from Swedish singer Albin Lee Meldau, who performs from his latest EP ‘Lovers’.
Norwegian singer-songwriter Moddi performs tracks from his album ‘Unsongs’, a collection of 12 covers that have been banned in 12 different countries.
Find out how Nordic cuisine is influencing the rest of the world with the help of Victoria Eliasdóttir – sister of artist Ólafur Elíasson – who has brought an Icelandic-inspired kitchen to Berlin. And in New York we visit Noma co-founder Claus Meyer’s new restaurant Agern, which on opening night catered for a very specific clientele: children.
The Big Interview continues this week with Danish politician Anders Fogh Rasmussen. The former prime minister of Denmark and ex-secretary-general of Nato sits down with Steve Bloomfield to discuss his political career and, in the wake of the Paris attacks, the challenges the West is facing in its fight against Isis.
Norway’s fashion designers were once seen as dull and their work was said to pale in comparison to the work of their Nordic neighbours. Now a new crop is changing all that. Monocle’s Chiara Rimella investigates.
